Q-Park Shambles

Modern and decent size spaces. Be aware, if it’s busy you will have to wait up to 30 mins for your spot even if you pre booked a specific time. Better off just turning up and paying less!

Clean and well lit but tiny spaces and massively overpriced. £16.50 for 4 hours parking is a joke.

Do not pre-book parking with Q-Park as in the small print this does not reserve a parking space. I was unaware of this and knowing York would be busy at this time of year I advanced paid £28 for 11am to 11pm. This was expensive but I felt it was worth it for what I believed to be trouble free parking. We arrived about 12 noon to find the entrance road blocked by a man with a sign saying car park full. I told him we had pre-booked and he informed us that it did not reserve a parking space and there was a queue of over 10 cars waiting for spaces to become available. We parked at an NCP car park for £6.95 for 12 hours and as I feel misled will not be using Q-Park for any future parking

This car park was recommended by Hilton by Hampton ( or other way round) as the car parking for their hotel. The car park itself was ok a bit of a faff when they tell you to go to level 3 to pay when you are on the first level but safe place to leave your car. However it is a long way from the hotel!!

Generally the car park was clean, plenty signage etc. . . HoweverWas advised to park there by the Moxy Hotel. Wish I hadn't bothered. . . Tried to pre-book online and was apparently sold out, despite there being loads of spaces available. So I had to pay more.The spaces are far too tight, unless you drive something super small. The parent spaces are not even worth the signage. They are the same as every other space and the only reason I can think that they exist is they are on the same floor as the lift? Maybe.Spoke to the Moxy about it and suggested they stop recommending Q Park as it'll make their business look bad in the long run.

I picked the car park at random as this was my first visit to York, so I was looking for something convenient and forgot to look at price. The car park is jammed into an old building, so it's a bit of an adventure getting around it but overall it does the job. There is an attendant and pay machines on level 3. You need to swipe your ticket to get back in, which is obviously a security measure, as the surrounding area was a bit unsavoury (if you deviate from the main road up into the city). However, I got a shock at the price, as it was £16 for a 4 hour stay.

Decent car park with good security. Only downside is that to open the gate you need the QR code from the app. When you hold the app up to the reader, the reader triggers your phone to try and pay with a contactless card and removes the QR code from screen. Thus the car park never opens and you have to call the attendant via the intercom.

Great, I booked on time Internet, reserved my space. Easy to use. The barrier lifts as the cameras read your reg plate if you pre book, so no messing, same for leaving the place. Always spaces. Some of the spaces are a bit tight, so if you have a wheelchair or pram, then it is ideal to get it out before going into the slot if you reverse in.It's pretty expensive compared to parking in the East Riding, but it's worth it for the odd day in York.

I visited Q-Park Friday 3rd November where unfortunately my car broke down. Given this was a very stressful situation there were two parking attendants Bart and Alex who were extremely supportive and helpful. I had to keep my car overnight due to a very poor breakdown service. More importantly I was able to do so free of charge. Thank you both again, I am very grateful you were both so kind.

Really enjoyed York lovely place to walk round the places we ate at were very competitive and the food was excellent the only thing that soured the day was I got a ticket for going down a bus lane which I was not aware of badly signed to get out of the city
